The Smith and Rowland Show

Knowing the Time matters if you're going to read the Bible clearly, preach it faithfully, and apply it the right way. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show Podcast, Smith and Rowland open Romans 13:11-14 and talk about why spiritual wakefulness is urgent right now.

This conversation builds on their recent series through Jude and turns toward a key issue many believers miss: timing. They discuss what it means to "awake out of sleep," why Paul said it is "high time," and how knowing the season changes the way Scripture should be understood and taught.

Along the way, they tackle:

 * why all Scripture is true, but not every passage applies the same way in every time and season
 * how "rightly dividing the word of truth" affects doctrine, preaching, and daily Christian living
 * why books like Hebrews, the Gospels, and Paul's letters must be read in their proper setting
 * how confusion about seasons can lead to guilt, fear, bad doctrine, and spiritual misery
 * why the message for this present age is reconciliation through the finished work of Christ

They also use clear, memorable examples from farming, family life, and church ministry to show how truth applied in the wrong season can still do harm. That makes this episode especially helpful for pastors, Bible students, and anyone trying to make sense of end times, apostasy, salvation, and biblical discernment.

If you've ever wrestled with questions about dispensational teaching, the signs of the times, or what the church should be preaching right now, this episode gets right to it. It's a strong start to a new series and sets up the discussions to come.

Is there a spiritual force behind the War with Iran? In this episode, Smith and Rowland connect Bible prophecy, Jude, Daniel 10, and today's headlines.

On Ep. 886 of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation turns straight to one of the most serious issues in the news right now: Iran, Israel, and the spiritual battle behind the conflict. As they walk through Jude and Enoch's prophecy, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss the difference between the rapture and the second coming, then connect that teaching to Daniel 10 and the "prince of Persia."

This episode focuses on the idea of a Principality over Iran, and what that could mean for the current War in the Middle East. They talk about anti-Semitism, the threat against Israel, the role of prayer and fasting, and why this battle can't be viewed as only political or military. Instead, they argue that what's happening in the natural world points to a much larger spiritual conflict.

You'll hear discussion on:

 * Jude 14 and Enoch's prophecy
 * Daniel 10 and the prince of Persia
 * Iran's long hostility toward Israel and the United States
 * Gog and Magog, Ezekiel 38, and end-times prophecy
 * Why intercession, prayer, and fasting matter right now

There are also classic Smith and Rowland moments throughout the episode, including a memorable sponsor mention from the "Purple Truck," which brings a little humor into a weighty conversation.

If you follow Bible prophecy, current events, spiritual warfare, or end-times teaching, this episode gives you a lot to think about. It's direct, urgent, and rooted in Scripture.

Watch, share, and join the conversation.

What does the Bible say Apostasy looks like in real life? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland walk through Jude 12 and 13 and talk plainly about the Marks of apostates, why they're dangerous, and how they work inside the church.

This conversation gets to the heart of a hard truth. Apostasy isn't always loud or easy to spot. Sometimes it comes dressed in spiritual language, Bible talk, and promises of deeper insight. Yet Jude gives strong warning signs. He describes hidden rocks, clouds without water, fruitless trees, raging waves, and wandering stars. Smith and Rowland unpack those images and show why they still matter right now.

Along the way, this episode also touches on spiritual elitism, false depth, and the danger of people who mix truth with error. That's where this message hits hard. The focus isn't on hype or religious performance. It's on Christ, the cross, and the presence of God. As Alan and Jeff explain, when people drift from the simplicity of the gospel, they become easy targets for deception.

There's also plenty of the humor listeners expect from The Smith and Rowland Show, but the core message stays sharp. Apostates are predators seeking whom they may devour, and the church needs discernment. If you've ever struggled to identify false teaching, or wondered how deception spreads among sincere believers, this episode will give you a clear Bible-based framework.

Watch, listen, and weigh it against Scripture.

A sober Bible discussion on apostasy, delusion, and why forgetting what God has done can put a soul in real danger.

In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation turns to Jude 11 and the hard warning it gives the church. Smith and Rowland walk through the way of Cain, the error of Balaam, and the gainsaying of Korah, then connect those patterns to the spiritual confusion many believers see today.

This Podcast episode covers more than surface-level church talk. It presses into the difference between deception and delusion, the willful rejection of truth, and the danger of denying what God has already shown and done. As a result, this becomes a serious Debate about apostasy, unbelief, grace, judgment, revival, the rapture, and the state of the modern church.

You'll hear a strong Bible-based discussion on:
Jude 11 through 13 and the pattern of apostasy
Cain, Balaam, and Korah as warnings for our time
How deception can harden into delusion
Why unbelief matters so much in Scripture
The danger of rejecting truth after once receiving it
Why believers must never forget what God has done for them
How revival, memory, and faithfulness stay connected

Arrogance or Humility, the Choice shapes more than attitude, it reveals how we handle authority, truth, and spiritual conflict.

In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland continue their study through Jude and land on one of the most striking verses in the chapter, Michael the archangel refusing to bring a railing accusation against Satan and saying, "The Lord rebuke thee."

From there, the conversation opens up in a serious and practical way. They connect Jude 4, 8, 9, and 10 to the marks of apostasy, the danger of pride in spiritual talk, and the difference between fleshly boldness and godly Humility. They also discuss false teachers, authority, Moses' body, spiritual warfare, and why careless accusation can say more about our own hearts than we think.

This episode is for anyone trying to read Jude with clarity and apply it to church life today. If you've ever heard people speak lightly about rebuking Satan, attacking leaders, or using spiritual language with pride, this message gets right to the heart of it. Arrogance sounds strong, but Humility stands under God's authority. That's the Choice in front of all of us.

Topics in this episode include:
Jude Bible study
Michael and Satan in Jude 1:9
apostasy in the last days
spiritual authority and submission
false teachers in the church
Moses and the body of Moses
pride vs humility
what it means to say, "The Lord rebuke thee"

Watch, listen, and weigh the message carefully. This one presses hard on the spirit of the age.

Apostasy rarely starts with a loud denial of truth. It starts small, through unbelief, pride, rebellion, and a slow rejection of Authority. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation moves straight into Jude and tackles how Apostasy grows in the church, in ministry, and in the heart.

Alan Smith, Jeff Rowland, and guest Joel Goddard talk through Jude's warning signs, including murmuring, complaining, false grace, defiling the flesh, and resisting God-given Authority. They also unpack how Sonship shapes the way we respond to correction, covering, and obedience. This is a serious and honest discussion about spiritual drift, prophetic influence, leadership, and what it means to stay in the place God assigned.

Along the way, they cover:
how grace gets twisted into permission to sin,
why leaving your place of Authority brings real danger,
how pride can corrupt gifting,
why Sonship and submission are tied together,
and how Jude speaks with striking clarity to the church right now.

There's humor at the start, but the heart of this episode is weighty. If you've wrestled with rebellion, church leadership, spiritual pride, or the fear of slowly drifting from truth, this conversation will give you a lot to think about.

Watch, listen, and examine your own walk through the lens of Jude.
